For big groups, it will take a long time to get seated but if your are alone, it's always easy to share a table with others ️

Ordered my usual holiday drink Toffee Nut Cream ️ Baristas were all friendly, but downside was the place. It was too crowded and noisy. It was the only cafe that was in vicinity, CBTL was at the far end of the building so I was left with no choice.

This Venti hot drink always makes my tummy happy with its balanced milkiness and creaminess along with the balanced taste of the green tea leaves in it. I liked the combination of sweetness and bitterness altogether, making it a good calming drink for me.

The two newest Espresso Beverages!
Ordered the Red Velvet Strawberry Mocha Frappe for me and Chestnut White Chocolate Truffle for my friend. We both liked our drink. I personally enjoyed it. Though may Mocha pa din (mocha frappe lover here) eh I did like that there's chocolatey, mocha and fruity taste all at the same time.

Too bad I wasn't able to use my Planner coupon for January. Thanks to April for reminding us about it.

Why I got disappointed? It's because they've been offline with their Starbucks card service on my last 2 trips to Starbucks. The 1st one was in Laguna. And this time around, it's in SM Mall of Asia. The reason why I got the Starbucks card is because I want to buy coffee with ease. "I want to buy coffee just like swiping a credit card that's why I got the card".

They have to improve on this service. It just made me spend more money because of this. My stars will be credited after 7 days though. In the first place, why would they offer a service if they can't make the transaction work smoothly. It's just worthless yet disappointing. I do hope they improve on this.

MOA gives mallers the best of both worlds in summer: A cool air conditioned mall area (with an ice skating rink if you really, really want it cool), and an outdoor area simply loved by kids with all the rides they can imagine, and of course, the awesome Manila Bay view that's adored by both young and old.

Our summer time merienda woes were immediately solved when we were offered the chocolate banana smoothie at Starbucks. Another "secret menu" item, this drink also gives the best of both worlds - a fruity drink in an ice-cold chocolate concoction.

One whole cavendish banana is sliced and blended with Starbucks' dark chocolate drink to give that refreshing, rejuvenating experience. Ideal for us who are always in search of something new. We will definitely come back to Starbucks for this!

Dear SB, why so packed? I need some place to chill and study but your making my life difficult! Very crowded on a mid-afternoon! Plus my phones's battery is low and I need your generous outlet to charge. Oh please. I need peace. Gotta find it elsewhere.

I've been searching for Starbucks secret menu in the internet but when i went to Starbucks, other branch don't have the recipes. Good thing is, i found one recipe that they have completely. If you're a fan of strawberries and creme frappuccino, like me, you're in a for a treat. This Captain Crunch Frappuccino is sure to satisfy that sweet tooth craving. Here's the recipe:

What a day! After I have my interview, I needed to rest and relax somewhere. So we decided to hang in Starbucks. We were seated outside and, damn! I love that spot! Even though I visit this place often, I still haven't seated there since I am always on the high chairs. I must say, it is the perfect spot for people watching and to have enough sunlight to brighten your day. It is the most comfiest seats there. (Yes, its a double superlative) Anyway, we ordered venti choco java chip, grande toffee nut frap, and heaven on earth cake for the simple birthday celebration of my friend. I'm really not sure if it is free or a mistake but my toffee nut frap has been upgraded to venti. Thanks to the barista for whatever that is! This branch really does not disappoint me ever since I transferred here from the 32nd.
